Be tween tunes Mr. Bourne interviews nim eelf, and tells how Taft Is steadily gain In In strength. These interviews are passed around to the corps of newspa per correspondents on the ground, but It Is apparent that the Interviews do not get fceyond Hot Springs, for the correspond ents on that Job are mostly Washington men. and Washington newspaper corres pondents had more than their fill of iBourne Interviews during the past Win ter and Spring. Nevertheless, the Inter views continue to appear almost daily, nd are religiously consigned to the waste baskets. Tim Alters Viewpoint. The manner In which Senator Bourne Is now cultivating Mr. Taft Is In marked contrast to his attitude toward him prior to the Chicago convention. In those days when the Senator was pumping air Into the deflated "second elective term" boom. Sir. Taft was a weakling: a creature of corporate wealth: a puppet, ready to dance at the signal from Wall street; he was so weak that Bryan could defeat him without half a struggle. Suddenly Mr. Taft undergoes a great change, and in stead of a weakling, he becomes a tower ef strength: popular with the masses; the foe of special Interests, and the one man P Is going to defeat Bryan. Thl Is all n the Bourne point of view, ut through it all Mr. Taft has not nged. It is Senator Bourne who has nged. Taft is no greater today than was six months ago, but Senator Bourne, havln lost one Idol, has ln- ppected Taft at close range, and decided to "tie up with him ll possible, vv nen 3nator Bourne believed or pretended to believe that there was a chance or renom- nating Roosevelt, he could see no good In Secretary Taft: now that Taft Is nom inated and on the road to election, and pRoonevelt Is preparing to take to the African Jungles, the Senator has found the nominee quite aa gooa a man as Roosevelt, and has turned ail attention kto him. Some Possible Considerations. Jfo one can speak Senator Bourne's mlnH hut himself, and no one can au thoritatively say why the Senator has changed his colors, but there are sev eral things that might bo considered by way of speculation. ' First, there Is the Question of patron age, dear to the heart of every Senator. 'hen Taft become President, Mr. ourns will have a Democratic coi- ague, if his primary law holds (rood. hat means that cnamoeriain win nave to voice In the naming of Federal of- lclals In Oregon. The Oregon delega ion, however, has an arrangement hereby the entire delegation Is to be onsulted about Federal appointments in the state, every member to have Vqaal voice with each of his colleagues, that agreement, of course, holds good lioljr to the itti of March nexc. The, agreement did not work out to the satisfaction of the delegation for rea sons which need no further elabora tion. Nevertheless, under that agree ment the two representatives, who have been re-elected, were obliged to make concessions they would not have made had ' the agreement not been in force: they gave up patronage that would otherwise have belonged ab solutely to them. Now Senator Bourne wants to abro gate that agreement, and the Congress men and Senator Fulton want to keep It in force. If Fulton Is eliminated. Bourns will have to fight It out with the Congressmen, and he will want out side aid. Mayhap he had this In mind when he went to Hot Springs, for after all It will lie with the President to accept such recommendations as he chooses; it will not be incumbent upon him to hearken to the Congressmen un less he so chooses. Fulton In Iine for Preferment. This patronage matter also has an other phase. While Senator Bourne was antagonizing TafU Senator Fulton was doing his utmost to bring about Taft's nomination. He was one of the first Senators to declare for Taft. and one of the hardest laborers In the Taft camp. At Chicago he took prominent part In the work of the Taft people. Since the convention be has been de voting much of his time to Taffs Inter ests in Oregon. It was rumored that Fulton, even though defeated for (he Senate, would have a voice in the se lection of Federal officers for the state a sort of reward for his efforts. This report reached the ears of Senator Bourne, and it is quite possible it made an impression. Virtue of Standing In. Then there is another thing that might be considered. A Senator from a Western state, to make a hit, mnst "stand In" with the administration. The penalty for antagonising the ad ministration is severe, as demonstrated in Kansas, North and South Dakota, where three anti-Roosevelt Senators have recently been defeated. Mr. Bourne's term will expire with the ad ministration of Mr. Taft that is, the first administration of Mr. Taft. There is every reason to expect Mr. Taft and his policies and his administration to be popular 1n the West. Therefore, it behooves a Western Senator to be on good terms with the administration, rather - than antagonistic. A practical politician would so view it. Another consideration. Oregon sent an instructed Taft delegation to Chi cago, and unless the Statement No. 1 bugaboo works havoc in the state, Ore gon will line up for Taft in November. Without the primary law there would be no doubt where Oregon would stand In the general election. It, therefore, behooves a United States Senator, es pecially a Senator from a Western state, to get in line with public senti ment among his constituents. This Is Unpardonable Sim ' Still another consideration. Senator Bourne has publicly declared, in an au thorized interview, that he advocates the election of Chamberlain to the Senate. The United States Senate forgives Its members much, but it does not forgive a Republican for advocating and aiding in the election of a Democratic member of that body, and particularly when the Democrat comes from a state overwhelm ingly Republican, and where the legisla ture Is overwhelmingly Republican. The Senate has no regard for the Oregon pri mary law; it looks upon it as "fool busi ness," and for that reason the man re sponsible for that law, and the most en thusiastic advocate of Its strict enforce-, ment Is not adding to his popularity at the Capitol by urging the election of Chamberlain. But a Republican Senator, In a Republican administration, must stand in somewhere. Why not with the President, if he is an outcast in the Sen ate? Last Summer Senator Bourne cultivated President Roosevelt by remaining In Washington after all other Senators had left; this Summer he is cultivating Taft In like manner. When Senator Fulton retires. It Is very natural that Senator Bourne should want him to occupy a back seat. Fulton is close to Taft; the way to obliterate him is to get closer to Taft. During the next four years all blessings In the way of patronage must come from Taft. if he shall be elected, and many other blessings within the "reach of politi cians. Therefore it would appear to be good business to get as close to Taft as possible. Bourne's Advice Ignored. Senator Bourne went to Hot Springs declaring that "residuary legateeship" was to be the paramount Issue in this year's campaign. He urged Taft to de clare, in his speech of acceptance, that be would not undertake to name his suc cessor. His advice was Ignored. It Is also noticed that not since that speech has Senator Bourne said a word about residuary legateeship; Bryan has not found in It any value as a campaign issue and the so-called Issue has followed the "second elective term" bugaboo to a "mouldering grave." Let It be noted that Senator Bourne is no longer giving ut-. terance to sentiments not approved by Taft. He has his reasons. He has not stated them. So the public must make Its own guess.

'" ' ' "Hooligan in New York," a melodra matic comedy drama, will be seen at the Star Theater the week of September 6. It is said to tell a consistent story and Is as full of laughs and tears as any ever staged. The author, Sam Morris, has taken for his theme the incidents made famous. In cartoons of "Hooligan" and has woven around the character a story of metropolitan life that is unique in the manner of handling and presentation. Any story that deals with the mysteries of New Tork life has a peculiar element of Interest in it. In spite of the news papers, the police courts and the city au thorities, hundreds of crimes are com mitted that are never heard of, hundreds of dramas in real life are enacted prov ing that truth is sometimes more strange than fiction. Here and there in the news papers you may see a paragraph that puzzles you. Could you solve the mys tery, you might tell a story of human pas sion and Interest, of love and hate, as strange as any evolved by a dramatist. Such a story Is "Hooligan in New Tork" and the author has not gone far afield In plot and situation to tell his tale. The scene is laid among the Ten derloin places of Gotham and some of the equally notorious landmarks of the seamy lower East Side, which includes the once-dreaded Five Points, a Chinese opium den. Cherry street at night, show ing a view of the Brooklyn Bridge Illumi nated, and a thieves' den; exterior of the Tombs prison and the historic Bridge of Sighs. Of course Hooligan is the central figure of It all and thwarting of the vil lains In their efforts to injure and obtain the fortune of Nellie, a blind girl, is laughable at times and at others equally sensational and exciting. A stirring cli max is the rescue of Hooligan, who has been tied to a rail on the New Tork Cen tral Railroad track, in the nick of . time by his dog Flip Just as a train is ap proaching The character of Hooligan is a crea tion of the newspaper supplements and his transition to the stage has scored a big hit everywhere. The supporting com pany Is a large and capable one and numerous specialties are introduced throughout the various acts. The price will be popular. Caught Between Two Autos. OMAHA, Neb., Aug. 29.
